I really wish they would introduced Undead Paladins. I love the race and the class. The lore? Well why not just take something from undead priests. The idea is there - a fallen paladin.

Death Knights are not undead pallies. I don't want to hear about how pallies used the light and undead are clearly not that. Then why do you have undead priests? It makes sense, and would be something cool to see, IMO.

Well in the undead priest quest line. They talk about the shadow and how its not always the light that can be used to heal.

Well, if I had been designing the classes, I would have said only Humans and Forsaken could be DKs... because this is a story of Lordaeron.

Undead Paladins seem to simply not work. The Forsaken may have broken from the Scourge but they did not return to the Light.

Of course with the LOL Lore of Tauren Paladins without the Light, I guess that is a moot point to argue...

Paladins, due to their bond witht the Holy Light, are immune to the Plague that created the undead that eventually became the Forsaken.

All undead Priests in lore are considered Shadow Priests only because they lost their connection to the Light when undeath claimed them. The fact that undead priests in the game can use Holy magic for healing and such is strictly a game mechanic done for balance and has zero lore basis whatsoever.
